I can't get me lower unit to drop to enable me to service my water pump. I have removed all of the bolts and can't get it to budge? I am the original owner of the engine.

If it's the bolts are corroded then try soaking with oil and may have use heat to get to break free.

I dont know if the 225 lower unit is set up different then my 150 but when I went to do mine I couldn't get it off until I found this video. Flippen nut was hidden under the round annode on the lower unit check it out. Hope it helps!!
